Death of a god (Final Fantasy X)
Let’s just go ahead and skip the part where Meg Ryan… sorry, Tidus learns that he’s a dead, imaginary civilization’s dream of sci-fi David Beckham (or… something like that) and look at the other big twist in FFX: you know, the one where you for all intents and purposes murder God. To give an (extremely) abbreviated version of this twist, it turns out that the being Yu Yevon, worshipped by almost all of Spira, is actually the soulless husk of an ancient summoner who infects aeons like a parasite, turning them into the immortal monster that terrorizes the world, Sin. So when Yuna and Tidus decide to screw the whole traditional summoner-suicide thing, they fight and kill Yevon directly, ending the cycle forever. Which is great. No more immortal Cloverfield whale demon. But they still killed God to do so, so it’s weird that the people take it surprisingly well
